Holy Community

Famous quotes containing the words holy and/or community:

    Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, for he has looked favorably on his people and redeemed them.
    He has raised up a mighty savior for us
    in the house of his servant David,
    as he spoke through the mouth of his holy prophets from of old...
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 1:68-70.

    As blacks, we need not be afraid that encouraging moral development, a conscience and guilt will prevent social action. Black children without the ability to feel a normal amount of guilt will victimize their parents, relatives and community first. They are unlikely to be involved in social action to improve the black community. Their self-centered personalities will cause them to look out for themselves without concern for others, black or white.
    James P. Comer (20th century)
